Donuts are amazing and light, not greasy and heavy. My daughter is almost 4 and weve been going here for about the last 2 years. Its a tradition that we go every Friday before school. She couldnt say donuts on Friday when she just started talking so she shortened it to DOEFRY (Donut Fridays) and it just stuck. Shes so excited to go here every week and we thank Lea and the other workers there for always be so nice. Theyre pretty much as much part of our Friday morning tradition as the donuts themselves. They even gave her a donut ring one time that she absolutely loved, until she lost it 6 hours later. Great place with great food. P.S. The taco truck next door to them sell really good fresh tacos and they have outdoor tables.
Classic hometown donut shop. Donuts are awesome and the owner even came and gave my kids and I some free donut holes while we were eating. Absolutely going again!
Lovely customer service. They didn’t hesitate to make my husband a fresh sandwich. Freshest kolaches in town. May I suggest adding an option to tip with a credit or debit card! Take some cash to leave a tip, they deserve it.
This is a super easy location, and best donuts in town. Everyone who works here is great and they sometimes have samples of donut holes up on the case. Classic, simple, tasty.
Best. Donuts. Anywhere. They fill donut with Bavarian cream fresh while you wait. And MAPLE donuts people!!! We are a long way from Vermont or Canada. Well played.
Stopped in on a Tuesday. I will be bringing friends next time. It has a good atmosphere. Menu is like a cafe in Boston I loved.
Got there near seven, it wasnt very crowded. I will be back with my relatives. It has a great interior.
They know our son and his parents 😃 Fridays are donut days and they have fresh donuts always!!
This is an amazing small donut shop. The glazed donuts are some of the best Ive had. If you just want a good donut go here. If you want a trendy hipster donut then go to voodoo. I always stop here when Im in Austin.
Donuts are good, prices for doints are extremely high. When I say high like $14 a dozen.. Yes yes I know its at congress and riverside and the owners rent is ridiculously high.. I still feel its expensive. No signage stating the cost either..
I love howdy donuts. They make great donuts and kolaches. And the service is great too. They always remember my order when I come in and everyone in there is always so happy and positive.
Best croissant kolaches Ive ever had in MA LIFE. Donut holes... so good. Bear claw... so good. Maple donut... so good. Everything... so good.
Man this dude takes care of us every time. Always a smile and just all around good sweets and stellar kolaches. Just grab and go cuz the shop is tiny.
Friendly service and we told her we were from out of town and she gave us free donut holes and we didnt even notice until we had left and opened the bag. The donuts were delicious, and we loved the kolaches. Good little donut shop, give it a try!
Great donut shop with a lot of options. They regularly run specials, so make sure to ask. They have a few tables to enjoy your morning coffee and donut. Parking is very limited and the place can get busy in the mornings.
I love this place, excellent food & service. Service is consistently great. Prices were fair.
Best kolache (pig in a blanket) Ive had in Texas! I got the jumbo, non-spicy. Also got a glazed donut, chocolate top donut, apple fritter, cinnamon sour cream cake donut, blueberry cake donut, and a handful of (free?) donut holes, all for less than 10 bucks.The ambiance itself is very simple (yet colorful), and the family that owns it is pretty nice. This place looks and sits adjacent to very bland, slightly shady places, but it is definitely worth a visit. You can also walk over by the foot trucks for outdoor seating.
Seriously some of the best donuts Ive ever had. Try the kolaches too! Service is nice and friendly, and will hook you up with some awesome donut holes when you buy a dozen!
I like it here, great food & service. Prices are reasonable.
Average. I’ve had way better in other cities. I was disappointed. Maybe they’re 4star for Austin.
Go there every morning just about great staff fast good breakfast
Very delicious. Menu is like a place in Miami I enjoyed
Great donuts and nice folks here.
Friendly staff, great donuts and kolaches. Nothing you could expect more from a donut shop in TX
Friendly owners and great donuts! The breakfast kolache was delicious.
Sweetest little girl gave us free donuts! Good donuts & service
Maybe I got a bad batch (based on the other reviews) but my Fritter was 2/3 saturated in oil and nearly inedible.However the service was friendly and my wifes blueberry donut was decent.
The south Congress store is open again as of May 2016. Awesome donuts, super friendly staff (above and beyond friendly) and so close to work. We needed a downtown donut shop!!!
Good donuts amd kolaches but expensive. Definitely adds up!
Fres fresh selections of donuts! Plus, they give you a free bag of donutholes with a purchase of dozen donuts :)
The croissant kolaches are the most amazing things Ive ever tasted. Buttery, flaky, cheesy, Mmmm!Nice girl behind the counter always asks, Would you like me to warm them up?Yes maam! :)
Overpriced and unimpressive kolachies. If you have ever had a good kolachie dont let this high rating fool you. They are made with hotdogs and $3 a pop. This place is an expensive joke and you arent the one laughing. Everyone that is rating this 5 star has never had real kolachies
Pretty good little doughnut place downtown. It isnt too expensive and it is one of the few places you can get food really early.
Try not to judge the place from the outside, pretty cool little spot and the donuts were great.
We were going to go to Voodoo, but the line was insane! We went here instead and it did not disappoint us at all! Very good doughnuts and kolaches.
Im a fanatic about donuts, and I have no hesitation in saying this is the absolute best shop in Austin. Fluffy donuts, delicious icing, and the kolaches are buttery and amazing!
Best kolaches Ive had
First time my crew ever ate all the breakfast I brought for a meeting. To me, a doughnut is just a doughnut, but the kolaches are the bomb!! Good customer service, good food!
Melt n ur mouth great donut holes.
Great kolaches, great prices, and super friendly staff!
Really kind guy unusual spot for a donut shop but thats where the hidden gems are.
Great doughnuts great people!
This is my spot. Best donuts and Jalapeno Sausage Kolaches in town.
Could not have been better. We recommend the jalapeño sausage kolache and the croissant sausage kolache.
Hands down the best donuts in town
Great donuts for a good price
Standard donut place. I liked the croissant kolaches.
Good donuts in cheerful setting and friendly customer service.
Great place to go before work. Try their sausage and cheese kolaches!
Great donuts! And the kolaches have plenty of sausage
Not sure what their hours are now but they should be 9PM - 12PM. Theyre great donuts and they would have the late night reefer-head market cornered.
Amazing all around, but are currently closed for construction
Ok donuts and kolaches
The best donut holes ever.
After dropping off my baby daughter (grown up) and grandson I needed serious cheering up; Howdy Donuts is the place to go!
My daughters favorite place for donuts.
Great donuts, cheap prices.
Spicy sausage kolache is life
I walked to Howdy Donut on South Congress today and was disappointed to find a dark and empty donut shop. #Closed #NoDonutsHere
Great selection and tasty!
Best doughnuts in town
Best and reasonable donuts!!
We love Howdy Donuts!
Good kolaches
The perfect breakfast donut.
My favorite guilty pleasure!!
Overpriced & not a great selection...may be due to SXSW but will get my donuts elsewhere....
Over priced.
Great.
My only place for DONUTS 🍩 in Austin!!!!!
Eat more holes
Delicious donuts
